Pros

There was a lot of flexibility when I was a recruiter, work on what you wanted and as long and you hit goals you felt fine

Cons

The last few years it's like they want to fail... started antagonizing successful recruiters basically begging people to quit. It doesn't really make sense why they took a business that had growth protentional and ran it to the ground

Pros

Good breadth of offerings in the staffing world and some boutique consulting services, although they have recently carved off some businesses and that is making them more niche again.

Cons

Constant turnover at the top levels. They have lost at least 2 CEOs (without any public notice) and there's been a lot of talent loss and role-shifting at the VP levels and above. They have radically changed comp plans within the Sales teams, and it's caused them to lose a lot of their A players. Cost-cutting seems to be the driver. Honestly, I'm not sure what their strategy is anymore. They seemed to have a "plan" when I was there, but they've become just another staffing company in my mind.
